I was never a pink girl growing up. Purple? Sure! Pink was for girly girls to me. I was more of a Rainbow Bright with sunshine kind of kid. So when I had my daughter and she eventually went wild for pink I know my own mother was smirking a bit, just thinking about all the times I was not into pink as a kid!

Yet here I am, happily making pink pancakes chock full of raspberries for my pink loving child for Saturday morning breakfast. One, I’ve decided pink and girly? Aren’t as bad as my eight-year-old self believed. Two, pink pancakes are delicious! I decided to make these without food coloring and let the raspberries add the color. I’m not against a little bit of food coloring here and there but decided I wanted to try my hand at making a nice pink color without using dyes this time. (If you do want to add food coloring to make yours look even pinker, The McCormick Color From Nature dyes are my favorite!)

I’ve upped the game; I put them on a kabob stick. My eight-year-old self would have been delighted by that kabob stick. The stick isn’t necessary to enjoying pink pancakes, but it sure does up the fun factor! Slide a raspberry on top and you have pancakes worthy of Valentine’s Day! Pink hearts, love, raspberry pancakes… they all go together.

Even better these pancakes slide easily into a lunchbox. They also freeze well too. I freeze them between wax paper sheets so I can slide out just a few at a time. Toast these raspberry pink pancakes in the toaster oven or microwave them for ten to fifteen seconds. You can also add protein powder to the recipe if you want to give them a boost. Recently, I wrote a sponsored a recipe post for Sneakz Organic featuring Neapolitan Pancakes that you can make using their fab protein powders designed to give kids an extra boost. While that post was sponsored, we keep using the powders in our house. I like how they are a clean product and are a great way to give a meal a little extra boost or protein every now and then. You could easily add Sneakz Organic protein powder in either vanilla or strawberry to this raspberry pancake recipe too, we do sometimes in our house. I just add one scoop to the recipe below, but it’s totally optional and I don’t do it every time.
